Live Breaking News & Updates on Wanted cnn

actually happened during that meeting. some say the government wanted cnn to be sold off as a condition for approval. the government has denied that. we're going to hear all about the doj's case later this evening, but that's what provokes this question about whether the trump administration is somehow trying to punish cnn through this deal. again, they've denied that, but that's something that's probably going to come up in court. >> and the president, of course, had public comments saying he opposed the deal before the election as well. i'd imagine that would come up in court as well. brian stelter, thanks very much. >> thanks. to the politics lead. need a window into the president's thinking? look no further, of course, than to twitter. who he's taking on today and the issue he's taking heat on for staying silent. that's after this. ♪
